He recalled personally visiting the disaster-hit regions to assess the damage and oversee relief measures. The government, he said, had extended maximum possible support to affected families.<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Minister further stated that Himachal Pradesh had become the first state in the country to substantially enhance disaster relief assistance from its own resources. Under a special relief package introduced by the state government, compensation for fully damaged houses has been increased from Rs 1.30 lakh to Rs 7 lakh. Combined with other forms of assistance, affected families can now receive support of up to Rs 8 lakh.<\/p>\n<p>He added that compensation for the loss of household belongings has been enhanced from Rs 2,500 to Rs 1 lakh for homeowners and Rs 50,000 for tenants. Financial assistance of Rs 1 lakh has also been fixed for partially damaged kutcha and pucca houses.<\/p>\n<p>Sukhu said the government had also introduced several new provisions that did not exist earlier. Assistance of Rs 25,000 is now being provided for damage to poly-houses, while Rs 50,000 is being granted for the removal of debris and silt from affected houses.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, compensation for livestock losses has been significantly increased. The government now provides Rs 55,000 for the death of a cow and Rs 9,000 for the loss of a sheep or goat. A special provision of Rs 50,000 has also been made for the reconstruction of damaged cowsheds.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the occasion, Jagdish Reddy thanked the Chief Minister for allocating substantial funds for road development in the Seraj region. He stated that the constituency was witnessing unprecedented support and development initiatives under the present state government.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting underscored the government&#8217;s focus on strengthening infrastructure, improving connectivity and providing enhanced relief and rehabilitation support to disaster-affected communities across Himachal Pradesh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rs 137.40 Crore Approved for Chail Chowk\u2013Janjehli Road Strengthening, Says CM Sukhu. &nbsp;
